Ace Rental Cars
4.0/5
Budget small car, used them before, reliable but always take additional insurance to zero excess for the three month period involved.
The car always needs a good clean!

Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre

Marfells Beach Campsite
4.5/5
Our favourite DOC site with much improved facilities this year without spoiling its wild isolated basic attraction.

South Island ▷ Coastal Otago ▷ Dunedin ▷
Royal Albatross Centre
2.5/5
To see a Royal Albatross you had to take a tour and only ONE albatross was visible.
The centre needs to be more 'open' that Feb/Mar is the best time to go! Expensive.

South Island ▷ Kaikoura Region ▷ Kaikoura ▷
Kaikoura Peninsula Walkway
5.0/5
Go around the rocky coastline at lowtide!
Go at nesting time (Nov/Dec with red billed gulls) Try to avoid stepping on fur seals!!

Abel Tasman Coast Track
3.5/5
Get yourself to Marahau and walk as far as you want to before turning back.
Perhaps you might decide to do all the track!!!

Milford Sound Day Cruises
4.0/5
We took the nature cruise but the commentary was a bit predictable having done this 17 years before!
Same script we think!!
